first I [Bb] come to Louisville [Gm] my fortune [Cm] there to find
There was a maiden there [Bb] from Lexington.
[Gm] She was pleasing [Cm] to my mind
Her rosy cheeks her [Bb] ruby lips [Gm] like arrows [Cm] pierced my breast and the name she bore was [Bb] flora
[Gm] lily [Cm] of the West
[Bb] [Cm] Like what it loved [Bb] the floor of [Gm] some pleasure [Cm] there to find
She turned into [Bb] another [Gm] man.
We're just so distress [Cm] my man
She robbed me of [Bb] my liberty

robbed me [Cm] of the rest
Still I love my faithless [Bb] floor

was down in yonder [Bb] shady grove [Gm] with a man of [Cm] high degree
Conversing with [Bb] my floor there [Gm] seems so [Cm] strange to me

I was betrayed by [Bb] flora
[Gm] Lily [Cm] of the West

I stood up to [Bb] my rival [Gm] my dagger [Cm] in my hand
Well, I summed him [Bb] by the collar

In an act of [Bb] desperation
[Gm] I pierced [Cm] him in the breast
It was all for the love of [Bb] flora
